UKJASE

there must be so many people living in fear in the US, all due to the stupid gun laws, and the need for gun companies to make money

this has been a big story on thai news.  my gf has been telling me about it

a long time to chase after someone and not even get a kiss!!

there's a good one near to the railway station, under the big yellow archway that is just after the 7/11, if you pass the 7 on your left

the guys name is kuhn F, and his english is great, and lots of farang take their bikes to him

i went to visit my mate in IDC in bangkok.  looked like a pretty rough place.  best to avoid detention here at all costs

pak nam pran has plenty of empty land adjacent to the beach

theres a couple of beach bars down there too to check out

i hope we get one in hua hin - would be a good vibe for sure

mine comes to my hotmail account, and is read within outlook

you sure it applies to all hotmail accounts george?

dont forget the rizla

ask the bank if they can give you a better transfer rate than the one they offer on typical transfer, as it is a large amount

kasikorn gave me an improved exchange rate, when i transferred a large amount

if they dont, look into Wise as an option.  as has been stated, it may save you quite a lot of money

there is a car show at hua hin tonight if you are nearby

Hi Guys,

the mrs and i have a trip to kuala lumpur planned and a trip to tokyo.  I have bought some ringitt here in hua hin already, but i dont want to carry too much cash with me (else the mrs will hit the shops hard!) ????

what is the best / cheapest way to get hold of local currency whilst abroad?  i have a kasikorn debit card, uk credit cards, paypal account, wise account....

i feel that using baht to buy currency means that i am paying to exchange twice (ie pounds > baht > yen/ringitt)

are there any more efficient methods to get pounds converted to local currency?  credit cards are normally expensive / offer poor rates, right? any cool apps that will let me deposit pounds in uk and withdraw cash cheaply in asian countries?

also, KL/Tokyo are not going to be cashless are they, and i need to swipe for everything, rather than pay cash?

if you stay PKK city be sure to walk up to the temple on monkey mountain, to the north of the city.  Great views of the bay.  It may be worthwhile taking a stick with you for the walk, as the monkeys can be a bit menacing

is this likely to lower the prices you think?

my mate gets 10 kg sacks here in hua hin for 200 baht a sack. from the pranburi area i believe

i went to a ganja fair recently and a thai grower there told me if you plant some thai egg plants (มะเขือ - the ones served in green curry) near your ganja plants then you get lots of lady bugs / lady birds.  the lady bugs then in turn will eat all the spider mites that venture onto the ganja plants.  he was an experienced grower.

anyone else heard this or tried this? i get quite a problem with spider mites, so may give it a try - plus i love green curry ???? 

what area do you live?

after 10 years of driving here, i have learnt that nobody has right of way!  each and every scenario must be weighed up and considered before pushing in / out 

being a passenger sometimes in my mate's car when he thinks he has right of way, and someone pushes out and he gets angry, just proves this to me ????

Male seed pods, kill it. 

not worth keeping seperate from the other plants and getting the seeds from it? 

it looks like it would have been a good strain if it wasnt for the seed pods

will the buds around the seeds be worthless? no THC?

i thought when they first starting laying the tracks they spoke about the bkk to hh journey taking one hour?

Those are seeds that have formed. There's no such thing as "male seeds"... you're a little confused on how the plant works. Either some pollen landed on your plant and made some seeds, or the plant produced some unnoticed hermaphrodite (male) flowers and self-pollinated. But either way, they're not "male seeds."

ok i will look closely at the rest oif the plant and look for pollen sacs......  thanks PPK ???? 

i dont think there is another source of pollen nearby, as i have moved the plant 10 metres plus away from the other plants we have, and i did find a couple of sacs on this plant down the stem, but i thought i had removed them all. 

glad to hear that these are seeds, rather than sacs, as there was quite a few of them and it looked a real task to remove them all

PS a friend did tell me that as there are so many people growing now, there will be a lot of pollen in the air / on isnects etc, so it will be easy for outdoor plants to become pollinated.  any truth in that you think?
